I am about to die of old age, and I have awakened the character of longevity.

Chapter 264 Come to the Capital with Me!

Hearing that Bai Yujing meant no harm, Ye Nantian finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body gradually relaxed.

Li Chungang and Hua Yunfeng, who were standing to the side, also felt that the pressure on them had been greatly relieved.

Bai Yujing slowly walked to Xie An's side and gave him a faint smile.

Xie An bowed slightly and said, "Master."

Bai Yujing nodded slightly, then led Xie An and Su Yuqing towards the pavilion. As soon as the three entered, Li Chungang and Hua Yunfeng stood up and retreated behind Ye Nantian, neither daring to meet Bai Yujing's gaze. They only dared to follow Ye Nantian back to the pavilion.

Ye Nantian let out a long sigh of relief and welcomed Bai Yujing to take a seat, "Please sit down."

Ok.

Bai Yujing nodded and took a seat on the left side of the table. Xie An sat down next to Bai Yujing, while Su Yuqing sat down next to Xie An.

On the other side, Ye Nantian sat in the middle, with Li Chungang and Hua Yunfeng sitting on the left and right sides respectively.

The atmosphere became solemn and respectful.

wow~
Ye Nantian brewed the tea, first filling Bai Yujing's cup, then filling Xie An's and Su Yuqing's cups, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Master Bai, on gaining such a good disciple as Xie An."

Xie An slightly turned his head to look at Su Yuqing beside him, only to see that Su Yuqing's face was calm and indifferent, with no expression. Clearly... Su Yuqing was not at ease.

The atmosphere here was extremely awkward.

You should know that Su Yuqing was Ye Nantian's top disciple. But because of tonight's events, their master-disciple relationship is now merely a formality.

Ye Nantian praised Bai Yujing for taking Xie An as a good disciple, but... wasn't Su Yuqing also a good disciple?
Whether it's Ye Nantian, Bai Yujing, or Emperor Jingtai... they're all just grudges from the previous generation. But now, they've dragged Xie An and Su Yuqing, the younger generation, into it.

Faced with Ye Nantian's pleasantries, Bai Yujing remained expressionless. "You also have a good disciple, but you sent him far away."

Ye Nantian glanced at Su Yuqing across from him and chuckled twice. After some pleasantries, Ye Nantian took the initiative to ask, "I wonder how Master Bai plans to discuss the cooperation?"

Bai Yujing glanced at Su Yuqing, as if asking a question.

Su Yuqing also knew what Bai Yujing was thinking and said, "Just say what you want to say directly. I'm prepared."

Bai Yujing nodded and said to Ye Nantian, "His Majesty Jingtai has lofty ambitions and wants to make us fight amongst ourselves while eliminating both of us. This is naturally unacceptable. We are both cultivators, and we rely on our strength to establish ourselves in this world. I will go to the capital with you to talk to Emperor Jingtai."

Ye Nantian was stunned, thinking to himself: When a person has power, their words carry weight. Judging from her tone, she didn't seem to take Emperor Jingtai seriously. Such magnanimity was unique in the entire Great Qian Dynasty.

Ye Nantian took a deep breath. "I understand His Majesty Jingtai's temperament. Once he makes a decision, he won't easily change it. I'm afraid we won't be able to reach any conclusions."

Bai Yujing held the teacup in both hands and said softly, "If we can't get something at the negotiating table, then we'll have no choice but to take action."

Ye Nantian stared blankly at Bai Yujing.

To lay a hand on Emperor Jingtai... even Ye Nantian didn't have the courage to do that.

It still has to be Baiyujing.

Even Ye Nantian, a martial arts saint among men, never considered fighting Emperor Jingtai.

After a long pause, Ye Nan finally made a decision, "Alright. If the two of us join forces, we have a good chance of winning. But... how can I trust you?"

Bai Yujing said, "Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant. This is the best solution for you. I'm just here to inform you. If you don't want to, that's fine too. I'll go to the capital alone."

Ye Nantian felt extremely embarrassed, and finally said, "Okay."

brush!
Bai Yujing suddenly stood up. "Then let's not delay. Come with me to the capital in three days."
